OT: ORANGE JUICE

the wavy dude on another thread mentioned tropicana and minute maid.

orange juice.

for the past 2-3 years i didn't touch any orange juice. just got tired of drinking it. tropicana, simply orange and freshly squeezed were my faves.

about a week ago at a newstand/deli store. i'm not in the mood for water. so i reach for a quart of tropicana pasteurized. take it home, shake it real well, open it up and took a chug. reaction: this tastes like shit!!!! tastes like really diluted minute maid.

question: did tropicana tweak their orange juice process? what i recently experienced was not even remotely close to what i used to drink by them years back.

    Nigga I don’t drink that shit solo I mix it with my LEAN! Well only the peach one but I agree the orange juice taste off. The Oj used to be so refreshing, now that shit taste like ass.

    Lately I've been buying "Simply Orange" - before I'd buy "Florida's Natural", or "Tropicana HomeStyle" which tasted good upon opening but would lose the taste after opening - have never been into Minute-Maid - I never buy the "From Concentrate" variety, they taste too watered-down.

    Never liked orange juice of any kind, except one time I had some from a small orange orchard independent place in some tiny Florida town. Just a tiny bit of pulp and less acidic tasting then any other OJ I had ever had. Same with their grapefruit juice.

    I never drink OJ by itself - always when I'm eating something (breakfast, sandwich, etc).

    "i thought my senses were fucking with me"

    you sure you didn't catch COVID from RickDugan and lost your sense of taste?

    Simply Orange has been fine for me, but I find myself mixing it with either soda (Gingerale or Sprite) or liquor 99% of the time. I enjoy bottomless mimosas at select brunch restaurants too.

    Can't remember the last time I had orange juice by itself.

    I still enjoy Tropicana OJ. They’ve added some other types of Tropicana - with less sugar, and some add more vitamins. I still enjoy Tropicana Pure Premium.

    But I will buy Kirkland organic OJ when I go to Costco - as I think it tastes better.

    The only time I drink OJ is when I get an Egg McMuffin from Mickey Ds. Somehow, that pasteurized drink goes good with the McMuffin. And yeah just wanted to give a shout out to the glorious Egg McMuffin on a stripper website lol.

    I rarely eat at McDonald's - but at times when I've ordered an OJ it's dispensed from a soda-machine and it doesn't taste too good (pretty-watered-down)

    ^I agree, the OJ at McD not that good, for some reason it just goes with the McMuffin tho. Maybe it’s a nostalgia thing. 🤷🏻
